Policies not working

[jaumard]

I try to set a policy to the DefaultController but it doesn't seems to be called, only controller method is called. An example will be good under https://github.com/trailsjs/trails-example-app

I'm seeing policies working in my trailpack-hapi work with footprints. (we define also a FootprintPolicy which guards the FootprintController with various validation).

Can you post the Policy you wrote?

[jaumard]

In fact my test was really simple. I just put this in my policy :

module.exports = {
  test: function (req, reply) {
    console.log('test');
  }
}

With a breakpoint on console and another on my controller method and only the breakpoint in the controller stop. So policy is not called at all.

@jaumard I think this is resolved, yes? Can you check

Hum now I have :

With policy :

'use strict'
const Policy = require('trails-policy')

/**
 * @module DefaultPolicy
 * @description TODO document Policy
 */
module.exports = class DefaultPolicy extends Policy {
  test(request, reply) {
    console.log('test');
    reply()
  }
}

And it's added under policies/index.js. Maybe an example on trails-example-app would be nice ^^
